The koala is an animal native to Australia. Koala bears are not true bears. They are marsupials like kangaroos. Koalas keep their newborns in a stomach pouch. They have developed very differently than other marsupials, in part because they spend most of their lives in the eucalyptus trees that serve as their main source of food.
